low as $75. You can advertise to over 8,000 individuals for less
than a penny and an. I have attached the advertising form with costs

Ø Castle Manor: Common Misconceptions About Supportive Living
1. You lose all your assets & belongings if you move in to Castle
Manor.
FALSE! We believe in financial independence, and you remain in
charge of your financial affairs. We accept all income levels: some
residents pay privately, and others qualify for financial assistance
through the Supportive Living program.
2. There is no independence.
NOT SO! Castle Manor encourages its residents to be as active as
they can safely be. You can come and go as you please, and we have a
van that transports residents around town for various outings and
activities. We have a busy activity calendar and many community
events.
3. If it’s just like living at home, why move?
IT’S BETTER THAN HOME! The staff at Castle Manor will help with
medication reminders, housekeeping and laundry, meals, activities of
daily living, to name a few. It is a social community environment,
where seniors thrive.
